What a joke

It if wasn't so tragic it would pobably be funny, but I can't bring myself to laugh quite yet - I'm still working on it. It's been a strange couple of years, and now to cap it all the Company I have bled for has let me go without a by your leave.

So I end up back in Matrimonial Court to discuss whether I should stil be paying £1,500 month in maintenance, bearing in mind my net worth is now less than £3,000, and instead of reducing my payments to nil until I find another job they order that I pay £350 month from now on.

So with a monthly rent of £1,000 I reckon I'll be back in court by the end of the year having run out of money.

Now if my ex didn't have any money and was on the bread line, and my three children were starving to death I might understand the decision. But the fact is that she earns over £2k before she even gets out of bed each month, has £80k in savings, and a house in Hungary worth £195K. Oh and let's not forget the trust fund set up with the money from the divorce that pays for two of my sons to go to boarding school - oh yes she is so broke.

And can I find a job, can I b******s, although I don't think I can blame the recession on her quite yet!

Anyway spleen vented, I may find something more positive to write about anon.

positive is good.

But everyone has the right to bitch about anything...It was about time for you to let that out.

I'm sorry.

What is the point of having a personal blog if you can't rant and rave.
It is always best to clear the air.
I hope things improve for you, and if they don't, slap it down in your blog and get it off yuor chest.
Good luck

It's not just the justice system, it's the unfairness of the bloody divorce system which is biased towards women!
I've nothing against women per se, but why do they get half and then continue to be supported!!! AAAGH!!!

Situation "Pants" You have my total sympathy. You're getting an unfair deal! These bitter women give us NICE girls a bad name! Recently came across a divorcee who is still required to buy his ex.wife's cat food????? DoH!! Why???? The're NOT even his cats, live with her and HER fault she lost him! Poor devil did everything to salvage his marriage for years until she eventually drove him away! Why can't she go out and buy the food herself?

I agree with okaylang, we all have a right to bitch, and we should be able to speak freely when we are positive or in a negative mood!
